Relational Spaces Ltd

What Relational Spaces Ltd does

Relational Spaces Ltd is a privately held, founder-led UK limited company (Company # 09480016, founded 2013, 10th anniversary celebrated January 2023) that operates a dual-sided therapy room rental and therapist discovery platform in central London. The company rents approximately 9 furnished, COVID-secure therapy rooms across two locations — King's Cross (6 rooms, 180/186 King's Cross Road) and London Bridge (3–4 rooms at Langdale House, 11 Marshalsea Road, SE1) — to independent counsellors and psychotherapists on hourly, half-day, and full-day tiers starting at £7.50/hour under minimum two-month contracts. Each renting practitioner is automatically listed on the company's public Therapist Directory, searchable by location, client type, language, and keyword across more than 30 languages, effectively making the platform a discovery layer for end clients as well as a workspace for practitioners.

The product surface extends beyond physical rooms into a community and professional development ecosystem: Pluralogues and Coffeelogues CPD events (£15–£35 per event), the "What Next..!?" six-session practitioner course (£50–£70 per session), monthly online "Mindfulness at Home" sessions on Zoom, community/social events, and a Google Group for practitioner-to-practitioner referrals. Individual practitioner psychotherapy and couples therapy sessions (e.g., Darren Cheek at £90 and £130 per session) operate alongside the rental business. Technology is entirely non-proprietary — built on WordPress with Google Workspace, Dropbox, Mailchimp, Xero, Stripe, Zen Internet hosting, and Google Analytics; there is no mobile app, no API, and no AI/ML capabilities.

Revenue is generated through usage-based room rental (the primary stream), transaction fees on CPD events and courses, session fees from a small number of in-house clinicians, and donations/community contributions. The company is co-directed by Dianne Levene (retired relational body psychotherapist) and Doron Levene (relational body psychotherapist focused on clinical supervision), with Dianne handling practitioner enquiries. Geographic scope is exclusively London; no external investors, parent company, or funding rounds are evidenced in the available data.

Emerging players

• BetterHelp: Online therapy platform matching individuals with licensed therapists via subscription. Competes with Relational Spaces' directory at the demand side: clients who find therapists through Relational Spaces may alternatively use online-first platforms.
• Spill: UK-based workplace mental health platform providing therapy and wellbeing to employees of SMEs. Closely comparable to Relational Spaces' corporate wellness segment but delivered via digital channels rather than room rental.
• Calm: Mental wellness subscription app with meditation and sleep content. Partially competes with Relational Spaces' mindfulness offering and represents the digital alternative practitioners may recommend.
• Headspace: Digital mental wellness platform offering guided meditation, therapy, and corporate wellness. Adjacent to Relational Spaces' mindfulness sessions and corporate wellness pursuits, targeting the same mental health consumer wallet.

Broad incumbents

• Work.Life: UK coworking operator offering flexible offices and meeting rooms with wellness-oriented branding. Overlaps with Relational Spaces as an alternative workspace for independent professionals, including therapists, in London.
• Second Home: Design-led coworking operator in London serving creative and professional independents. Adjacent competitor for premium central London workspace, including use by therapists seeking non-clinical environments.

Direct peers

• Therapy Space: UK therapy room rental service providing rooms to therapists on hourly and block bookings. Comparable business model focused on independent practitioners seeking professional rooms outside their own homes.
• Mindspace: Premium coworking space operator with wellness/therapy-friendly offices in London and other European cities. Overlaps with Relational Spaces on flexible professional space for clinical and wellness practitioners, though at a higher price point.
• The Practice Rooms: UK-based therapy room rental network serving independent counsellors and psychotherapists in multiple cities. Closest direct comparable to Relational Spaces, sharing the room-rental-for-clinicians model and serving practitioners accredited by UKCP/BACP.
• Therapy Rooms London: London-focused therapy room hire platform offering hourly and sessional room rentals to independent therapists. Directly competes with Relational Spaces in the same central London market with a similar hourly-booking model.
